Raspberry Pi

      Raspberry Pi also called RPI  in short, is a series of small computers (microprocessor) developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. Raspberry Pi was actually made to give the basic idea of computer science to school children but it became so popular that more than 5 million copies were sold by Feb 2015 making it the best-selling British computer. Raspberry Pi has all of those features of the real computer in the size of a small chip, for example, it has processors, GPU, RAM, Broadcom system (SoC),  3.5mm jack audio output, HDMI video output, 1 to 4 USB ports, ethernet port etc. The actual specs vary from model to model. Raspberry is programmed by python.

The difference between Raspberry Pi Zero(2015), Raspberry Pi Zero W(2017) and Raspberry Pi Zero WH(2018) is that
Raspberry Pi zero W has all the features of Raspberry Pi Zero except these
* Bluetooth 4.1
* Bluetooth Low Energy
* 802.11 b/g/n Wireless LAN
Raspberry Pi zero WH has soldered GPIO pins that is the only difference between the Raspberry Pi Zero W.

Arduino Uno

      Arduino Uno is a development board which is used all around the globe. Arduino Uno is based on ATmega328p microcontroller developed in Italy. Arduino has various types like Arduino Uno, mega, nano, pro mini, learnado etc. In this blog, we will be focussing on Arduino Uno. It has digital and analog input/output (I/O) pins that may be interfaced with different shields and circuits. It has 14 digital pins and 6 analog pins.

The Arduino board is programmed by Arduino ide (integrated development environment) software via type B cable. The Arduino ide software can be downloaded from arduino.cc website which is around 97 MB.
To select the board type and port go to tools a drop-down menu will appear click on boards and select Arduino Uno after that go below and select port option choose the only port available and you're done with setting up the software. Arduino is powered by cable or it can be done with a 9-volt battery. The language used to program Arduino is c. Arduino Uno Is most commonly used because it is user-friendly. Most beginners choose Arduino Uno as a first development board as it is easy to learn. Arduino Uno was the first development board in the series with a USB. In Italian Uno means one.
So, many Chinese companies started making clone version of original Arduino which works perfectly as genuine Arduino, as these clones were cheap and worked fine most people started preferring clones version of Arduino.
